Wow, they listed most of the reasons that no MK game has ever come close to SMK. I especiallydislike the speed thing, seems it took more skill when you carefully had to build up speed.
Bowser or DonkeyKong were the ones for the skilled player. Building up speed with an ever more high pitched sound from the engine, just to hit a wall and start out s-o-o-o s-l-o-w again.
